PROJECT 1: MOVIE POSTER
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this project is to demonstrate your understanding of the following course
concepts:
1. How to work with Photoshop’s basic tools.
2. How to work with Photoshop layers.
3. How to retouch and blend Photoshop layers together non-destructively using Layer
Masks. (IMPORTANT: Tutorials regarding such are provided in Week 2: Read & Watch. Please
review this content BEFORE you start building your poster, so you know how to do so
correctly using this industry-standard non-destructive editing technique.)
4. How to edit and format text.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
You have been hired as a graphic designer for a famous Movie Studio. Your first project is to come up
with a movie poster design for the next big SUPERHERO OR SCIENCE FICTION blockbuster similar
to the movie posters below:
ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Utilizing a provided Photoshop (.PSD) movie poster template file (shown below), use what you have
learned so far in this class to create a SuperHero or SciFi movie poster by non-destructively
combining 2 or more images together into one seamless and credible composite design.
This is a screenshot of the Movie Poster Template.
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
1. MODIFY the template file PROVIDED (SEE ATTACHED FILE CMST325-P1-Movie-PosterTemplate-v1.PSD). The template file includes the poster background and text.
2. COMBINE 2 or more Photoshop image layers together non-destructively using layer masks to blend
layers together and control what portions of those layers are visible. Use these composited (blended
together) layers to create a design that is realistic in appearance and that meets your supervisor’s
requirements (listed in the Project Description).
3. Come up with a fictitious movie (do not copy an existing movie). Create a new SuperHero or
Science Fiction character or place an existing one into a brand new movie concept.
4. Edit the template text to include the name of your:
a. Movie Title
b. Movie Subtitle
c. Actors
d. Actresses
e. Producer

NOTE 1: You can move the text around and change the format but make sure you include all the
movie poster elements included in the template.
